Americana: 26 Sep 2010: Tea Party movement

As members of the Tea Party movement campaign enthusiastically
ahead of this year's midterm elections, the political analyst
Michelle Bernard and the national political columnist John
Heilemann parse what members, supporters and scholars have to say
about the Tea Party. Keli Carender is credited with organising one
of the first Tea Party rallies - she reflects on how the movement
has blossomed. The Tea Party candidate Joe Miller from Alaska
explains his hopes for change in America. A Harvard University
Professor, Jill Lepore, explains how she thinks the Tea Party has
crafted a fable from American history in order to propel its
message. And the presenter Matt Frei talks to the American crime
novelist and creative writer, James Ellroy, about his newest book,
The Hilliker Curse, a memoir.
